Why sail this route

You unpack once and let the ship do the travelling: 7 countries over 15 nights, starting in Miami and finishing in Los Angeles, with a new port waiting most mornings instead of airports and hotel check-ins.

The pacing runs to 8 port days and 8 days at sea — time to enjoy the ship between stops.

About This Cruise

The 15 Night Panama Canal From Miami to Los Angeles: Mexico & Costa Rica is a 15-night one-way itinerary aboard Norwegian Joy. You board in Miami and disembark in Los Angeles, calling at 8 ports across 7 countries along the way.

In sequence the voyage takes in Florida (Miami), Colombia (Cartagena), Panama (Colon), Costa Rica (Puerto Caldera), Guatemala (Puerto Quetzal), Mexico (Puerto Vallarta, Cabo San Lucas) and 1 more.

As a one-way sailing you'll fly into Miami and home from Los Angeles, so it's worth checking the two gateways before you book. Longer hops are crossed on the 8 days at sea, keeping daylight hours for the ports. Sailing dates, cabin availability and fares vary by season — use Check Dates & Prices for live pricing, or call our team to talk through the options.
